Password on a POP3 account created with a PRF
I'm trying to create a POP3 account using a PRF file. Everything works
fine, except that I can't get a password for it. Any idea on how to make the password work? Here is a sample from my PRF file: [Pop3] OverWriteExistingService = Yes UniqueService = No AccountName=Voicemail POP3Server=10.1.1.12 SMTPServer=exch01.mycompany.com POP3UserName =vmname POP3Password =vmpwd POP3UseSPA = 0 ........ [I_Mail] AccountType = POP3 ;--- POP3 Account Settings --- AccountName=PT_UNICODE,0x0002 DisplayName=PT_UNICODE,0x000B EmailAddress=PT_UNICODE,0x000C ;--- POP3 Account Settings --- POP3Server=PT_UNICODE,0x0100 POP3UserName=PT_UNICODE,0x0101 POP3UseSPA=PT_LONG,0x0108 ................... |
Password on a POP3 account created with a PRF
The user will have to input the POP3 password manually. You cannot deploy it with a .prf file.

Is any other means of setting the password? Perhaps a COM interface or
a .NET assembly? Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook] wrote: The user will have to input the POP3 password manually.

Password on a POP3 account created with a PRF
AFAIK, no. You'd have to hack whatever method Outlook uses to store a POP3 password, presumably in the Profiles section of the registry.
